Foundation Drive
Our Foundation Drive is in progress and we hope to wrap it up by March 14th. Our goal is to have ALL Rotarians contribute to our Foundation which allows us to do good in the community and in the world. Contribute what you are able - we ask $250 per Rotarian but give what you can -- more, or less. We would much prefer you gave $10 than not participate this year. Mail your contribution to Wis Rapids Rotary Foundation, 2511 8th Street S # 157, Wisconsin Rapids, WI 54494. Or bring to our Monday meeting and give to Warren to deliver to our Treasurer. Let's have 100% participation!
2022-23 Officers Elected
At last week's Club Meeting we elected officers and Board Members for the 2022-2023 Rotary year. Elected (unanimously) were:
President: Tim Young
President-elect: Ron Rasmussen
Pres-Elect Nominee: Chris Stines

Treasurer: Amy Gust
Board of Directors: Shelly Mondeik (2-year term) and Julie Strenn (3-year term). 
Rule of 85
If you are at least 60 years old and your age plus your years of Rotary membership add up to 85 or more, you are eligible to apply for our Rule of 85. The only thing that changes for Rule of 85 members is they will no longer be prebilled for meals, and will only be invoiced for the meals eaten each quarter. Rule of 85 members are still considered active members, are encouraged to attend regular meetings, service events, and socials, and are eligible to serve as officers or board members. To apply for Rule of 85, request a form from Sue Sippel or Warren Miller.
